Stillsuit

Dune

Last Updated: 03-05-2011

Chani's stillsuit from the Sci-Fi Channel's "Dune" miniseries began as a khaki flightsuit, handpainted with Dye-na-flow fabric paint. I attached brown faux leather from an old purse at the wrists and shoulders, and sewed clear piping from a hardware store onto the arms and legs to simulate the moisture-recapture system. Hopefully, by the next time we wear these, we will have hoods and face-masks as well!
